Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To development a new system for evaluation of physical activity level during the wheelchair sports, we examined the performance of wireless motion sensor (triaxial accelerometers) in estimating energy expenditure in wheelchair basketball players. Both wheelchair frame-mounted accelerometer and the back of the player-mounted accelerometer well reflected the change of pushing pace. For more accurate estimation of energy expenditure in real game situation of the wheelchair sports, the non-linear regression model will be needed to develop.
